1. Nesean Plaza Hotel

1 km from Koules Fortress

"Our stay at the Nesean Plaza was so nice. This stay was a part of our Honeymoon. We got a bottle of champagne and a plate with fresh fruit when we arrived! The staff was very kind. And most important, the room was so clean! We got clean towels everyday. Breakfast was a buffet and had enough optione to choose from. If we go to Crete (Heraklion) we would stay in this hotel again. Really recommend this hotel!"

Top Koules Fortress Hotel Reviews

Mirabello Hotel

8/10 Good

"Convenient location. Clean. Small room, but good hotel for the price. Has a lift."

Metropole Urban Hotel

8/10 Good

"The property is located in a nice area. Lots of restaurants and night life. The staff are super helpful and the cleaning crew did a great job. Room for improvement the breakfast was abundant but only one cup of coffee maybe coffee should be open. Shampoo and body gel shower should be separate instead of the same for both the hair and body. The room description should be more accurate indicating that all rooms had the same size bed had I known that I would have chosen a different room."

GDM Megaron Historical Monument Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect location with excellent front desk help. Breakfast was varied with a delicious selection to accommodate all palates. Room was spacious and portable view was wonderful. Com,omn areas and floor lounges were lovely. Will hopefully return but will definitely recommend to colleagues and friends CD Rivers CT USA"

Galaxy Hotel Iraklio

10/10 Excellent

Plānis Str Urban Suites by Semavi

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful little spot and walking distance to bus station that can take you around town. Close to downtown, walking areas and all the shops. Staff was great! Attentive and answered questions quickly. Would definitely stay again."

Ethereal White Resort Hotel & Spa - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"Wir hatten einen sehr angenehmen Aufenthalt in diesem Hotel . Das Personal war sehr freundlich und aufmerksam , die Zimmer waren groß und sauber . Das Fitness Studio reicht absolut für ein Hotel und die Bar und Pool auf dem Dach waren richtig gut zum entspannen . Das Frühstück sollte man auf keinen Fall verpassen es ist sehr lecker"

Artion City Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We were here for two nights. This hotel is really well located. Just outside the city centre so you get a good nights sleep. We can not fault it. A lovely internal court yard where you can enjoy the excellent breakfast. I think the hot tub in the advertisment photo is either attached to another room or no longer exists. We did not have a balcony but no problem with that. Our flight back to the U.K was at 11.30p.m. Staff allowed us to store our cases in the reception area so we could enjoy the rest of the day in the city without having to worry. (I think this is routinue if you ask as other's had done the same thing). Recommend a stay."
